Help: Cannot get SGS2 ICS BlueTooth to stream music to my new car.

[ITemplate]

Hi,

So I got a new (2012) car with BlueTooth. When I initiate pairing, I'm asked for 4-digit code displayed on the car. But before I can enter that code, the formular/screen exits and it says "Unable to connect" on my SGS2. Tried it 10 times with same result. After that it does actually connect (and works) with phone. But the music streaming is not an option.

My other car has a Sony stereo which the SGS2 connects just fine to, both phone and music.

I guess it's a compatibility issue between ICS BT and my new car's BT. What can I do besides cry at the car-dealer (where he will laugh and tell me to get another phone)? Are there programs/updates/whatever that can help me?

As I suspected, it didn't work. That app requires the pairing to be working. And it is the pairing to media that fails, unfortunately. But thanks for answering...

Take a look in Settings - Applications and find your bluetooth client and Clear Data before trying again.

No go...But I just got off the phone with Renault (car is a Renault Grand Scenic, new 2012 model) and it turns out that there is an update to the bluetooth software on my model. So fingers crossed that it fixes my issues - will report back next Wednesday where my car has an appointment..
